what in the semantic bullshit?

breaking news:
a dv survivor,
single mom—
on food stamps
uses a metaphor
on her own website
and a whole-ass firm
reacts like i lit their headquarters on fire.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

apparently,

“i’m gunna burn
everything
fucking
down.
(figuratively)”

turns into:
“she really said she’s going to light this shit on fire”

…🥺🥺🥺

are y’all serious??

sweetheart,
it’s called rhetorical hyperbole.

aka: spicy, exaggerated language people use when they're pissed

am i confusing
because my mom was a grammar teacher?
the fuck is going on here?

honestly,
…what y’all are doing???
seems like…
a misstatement
of the undeniable…
accurate significance
of the quote.

lol because
no “figuratively???”
no context?
just vibes and name-calling??

yikes.

like babe.
that doesn’t feel like “evidence.”
that’s you taking a sentence,
ripping off its seatbelt,
and shoving it into oncoming traffic.

🔥🔥🔥

…

here’s what that paragraph actually says,
for the next character assassination:

i’m mad because:

if i ever find out a firm
and my own “advisors”
helped set the stage
for my near-death dv assault

while mocking me internally

as i bought policies
that they knew
i couldn’t afford
because they’d already drained me

…

then yeah,
i’m going to
“burn everything down (figuratively)”
by which i clearly mean:

🕊️ regulators
🕊️ courts
🕊️ complaints
🕊️ timelines
🕊️ records

homie,
i’m not talking about matches.
i’m talking about accountability.

because:

🙏 we almost fucking died.
🙏 they watched a pregnant woman get financially gutted,
🙏 physically assaulted,
🙏 erased from her own legal documents,
🙏 and they still act like they did nothing wrong.

translation:
i’m describing
systemic misconduct
and institutional negligence.
i’m saying
i’m going to torch their narrative
with the truth,
not their building with gasoline.

honey.
that’s what figuratively MEANS.

🙏

we need to
reinstate the vocabulary tests, yo.
this shit is bad.

so when you quote just:
“i’m gunna burn everything fucking down”
and conveniently crop out:
“(figuratively)”

and ignore:

💖 the dv context,
💖 the fiduciary context,
💖 the regulatory context,

you’re not
“concerned about the sanctity of the rules.”
you’re running
a personal smear campaign
with a court caption on top.

bro,
that’s not a threat.
that’s protected speech + trauma humor + a woman finally saying:

you oversaw dv,
financial abuse,
and quiet erasure of my rights
and you acted like it was
”business as usual”— just casual af.

🦄🌈✨🧚‍♀️

the only thing i’m trying to burn down
is the bullshit.

quote me correctly, on that.
